Johnny Depp leads children in mutiny
By Alexandra Heilbron on October 8, 2010 | 19 Comments
When nine-year-old Beatrice Delap wanted to organize a mutiny at the school she attends in London, she knew who to call on. And it took just one letter to enlist the aid of the world’s most famous pirate: Captain Jack Sparrow. Calling Meridian primary school to let them know he was arriving in 10 minutes, Johnny Depp showed up in costume with four other cast members. Beatrice sent her appeal when she learned he was filming Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides at London’s Old Royal Naval College nearby. The letter said: ”Captain Jack Sparrow, at Meridian primary school we are a bunch of budding young pirates. Normally we’re a right handful but we’re having trouble mutinying against the teachers.” Beatrice was thrilled when he gave her a cuddle, telling her he plans to frame her letter because it meant so much to him. “He asked where I was so I put my hand up and he gave me a hug. He pulled the letter out of his pocket and said he was going to frame it,” she told British newspaper The Sun.
